This blog is useless without the ballot file (I understand the CSM is on the case though!)

Edit: (after getting the ballot file)

Here is my analysis that I ran last time around. Key:
Top Votes - # of votes with *all* the people at the top
Complete Votes - # of votes with all the people in the ballot somewhere
Partial Votes - # of votes with at least 2 of the people in the ballot somewhere that is not a top or complete vote
Solo Votes - # of votes that had just one person listed in the group

Bloc - CFC (mynnna, Angry Mustache, Xander Phoena, Sion Kumitomo, Jayne Fillon)
Top Votes 31 (0% of votes)
Complete Votes 4653 (14% of votes)

Eligible voters had cast 31,294 votes, meaning that the number of votes cast this year is significantly lower than for CSM 8. We feel that this is due to a lack of awareness about the CSM’s form and function within the community, and we will be working actively with CSM9 to reach a broader audience over the coming term.

alternatively; people know about the CSM, and just don't give a ****.
i was just as aware this year of the CSM elections, except i voted on 2 less accounts than last year because i just didn't feel motivated to vote.

I'll come forward and say that I did not vote with any of my 7 accounts.

Honestly seemed like too much effort to first find out who I actually wanted to vote for and then juggle all the logins for such a small payoff so I just put it off until the deadline had passed.

The lineup seems fine to me though; I probably wouldn't have voted significantly differently so I really cant complain.

Seconded :)

And to comment on the low amount of Votes :

- 1 Announcment in Launcher, for most of the time second/thrid slide, so not really effective
- 1 News at mid-election to inform that Elections were opened, quickly overshadowed by some DevBlogs
- No "In game Login Screen Announcment" like there was every single year before
- No Candidates who actually reached out in Game to High Sec. I remember having at least 1 or 2 CSM candidates sending Eve-Mails to as much people as they could, this year around no one did it.

I would also say that each year players who are involved feels that the CSM is less and less meaningful and more and more of a "advisor" than anything else, which dosen't help getting people to actually read and vote :)
